1. I'm wearing the outfit on the far left right now.
I have a Bedazzler, so my hat is a bit more flashy.

2. What does he do when he gets chilly? -no buttons.
I mean, he doesn't have THAT much chest hair to keep him warm.

It's classy.

4. I love the hat
I love how they tell you it's a hat. K - hat, just in case you weren't sure. And because they know people will be clamoring for the shoes, they let you know you should turn the page even faster.

7. I had a pair of pants kind of like the ones on the left...
but they were bright sky blue with a white belt.

My mom and dad wouldn't let me wear jeans.

9. I had a pair of pants very similar to F on the far right
The color was a deeper aquamarine color than the one shown. My white platform shoes didn't have the racing stripes, however.

The pants were made of very flammable polyester or something. I dropped a cigarette ash and very nearly roasted my chestnuts.

11. There was lots of polyester in the '70s
Men's dressy shirts were in similar prints and material as those pictured, with the one on the right being the more typical style. Also note the cheesy 70s mustaches in the picture.

12. Yes.
My mother dressed me disco for the entirety of the 70s for school and part of the 80s until I rebelled and started wearing ripped up blue jeans with tapered legs. I LOATHE bell bottoms to this day.
